“Sam Howell Is Trash”: NFL Legend Rips Cowboys for Cutting Joe Milton From 53-Man Roster

Former NFL wide receiver Roddy White has criticized the Dallas Cowboys for cutting preseason standout Joe Milton from their 53-man roster, calling Milton "dominant" throughout the preseason. Milton had an impressive preseason, completing 29 of 43 passes for 378 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions, and was widely expected to win the QB2 race behind Sam Howell.

The Cowboys opted to waive Milton in order to make room for running back Emari Demercado, who was signed after being waived by the Kansas City Chiefs. White took to X to voice his displeasure with the decision, stating that Milton "dominated the whole preseason" and that "Sam Howell is trash like dumpster trash."
